I have no idea why Jia Shin would rework her triple lutz based on these scores in the Junior Worlds LP last season. Visually and in terms of scores, her 3lZ and 3T were ideal to me and as I recall she landed the combo well in her first competition this summer. . 6 3Lz+3T 11.11 x 1.94 3 3 3 3 3...

I hope Jia Shin, who I am a big fan of and who has given some of my favorite performances, skates great in her next competition and can become accustomed to Brian Orser who appears to be attempting to change her technique which I think was excellent before and doesn't need correction. Jia even...

Congratulations to Jia Shin on winning Korean Nationals for the second year in a row with a wonderful performance in the freeksate. I also really liked Kim Chaeyeon's freeskate and Haein Lee also skated well too. Jia Shin skated fast, smooth and gracefully with beautiful positions and expression...

I didn't mean to post that comment here so I apologize.

I think Haien Lee should have won the World Championships and she would have won with fair scoring. Haein Lee's scores were deflated in tech, PCS and GOE compared to Kaori in both the SP and LP and Haein Lee performed cleaner routines by executing more triple jumps with higher base value in...

Happy birthday to Mao Asada. Thanks for all the great performances filled with magnificent artistry and technical excellence and for inspiring a new generation of skaters through which your elegant influence can be seen in the skating rink.

I really enjoyed Rinka Wantanabe's freeskate performance with what has to be one of the most beautifully fluid and lofty triple axels I have seen and such a picturesque landing position. Her sophisticated expression and smooth and flowing speed with great rink coverage makes her performance...

The news about Rika is heartbreaking for me especially since she is one of my favorite skaters and has given some of my favorite performances filled with fine artistry, technical daring, beautiful expression and genuine excitement. I hope that Rika receives some wise and insistent advice to...

Was going to make a separate thread for this but decided to leave it here. Congratulations to Mao Shimada on her resounding victory in her first Junior Grand Prix event. I was amazed by her performance in the SP and even more in the LP. Mao Shimada's freeskate to me was stunning in its beauty...

Really happy that South Korea earned 3 places for next years Worlds. However, I don't share the same optimism many do regarding the atmosphere of the competitions because the same kind of scoring manipulation and discrimination still exists and has been commented on beneath Haein Lee's and Young...

Congratulations to Kaori on winning Worlds. I really sympathize with Wakaba and Mana and hope they come back strong next season, but now the full realization of the JSF's corrupt and cruel decision to eliminate Mai from World and the Olympics in complete contradiction to the international...

I haven't seen anyone post this breaking news but Ichatdelune posted the following information on goldenskate forum: Yelim tested positive for Covid so Haein is going in her place to Worlds In Haein's place Ahsun is going to JW Sungmin (as in Jeon/Choi) has finally found a partner, her name is...

Misread this post.

I have to say that as extreme as the bias is in scoring for a certain group of skaters and even though I do enjoy Mana's performances, the greatest injustice this season to me is the JSF' s stubborn and unjust insistence to stiff Mai, their second highest scoring skater internationally, from...
